    I measured my heart rate on my phone just after the game, 132 bpm. Exercising whilst drinking and watching the Dees most awesome win. Who would have thought. Go Dees!

    When the inferior Jetta missed that goal was when I started to think, hmmm. Just had that feel to it.

    The effort that went in to the last goal was immense. It goes down on the score sheet to PMac, but it had the blood and sweat from 22 of them. They were tired and injured, but they just kept grinding it forward with everything they had. I think it's the sheer guts of it that has made me giddy.

    Anyone think Viney will get a week?

    I thought that initially, but ball was in play and I think he had eyes on it. But who knows with this MRP.

    Someone put the final two minutes of the QB win on YouTube with various radio stations on commentary, instead of the TV.

    Would love someone to get the Perth-based radio commentary into that video from tonight's game.

    He might miss next week through injury, but not suspension.

    He was contesting the ball and it was an accident. Dale Thomas wasn't suspended for doing the same thing.

    An obviously important match to win from a ladder/season perspective, but also so important from an exposure/sponsorship/etc. perspective.

    Prime time Saturday night game, leading into our first Friday night game in 5 years. We should expect 50,000+ at the G next week and some good ratings, which really helps with holding/obtaining sponsorship and getting a better fixture next year.

    SHOULD not but probably will - MRP after all need to send a message, and don't really know what that message is  

    Had his eyes on the ball in a marking contest clash - no case to answer.

    I genuinely don't think I'm overstating it by saying that was the most significant win for this club in over a decade. Several star players missing, key in game injuries, 6 day break, interstate trip where we haven't won in 15 years, final quarter (and very late) deficit... HUGE amount of grit, flair and mental toughness showed by the boys. This team has officially arrived.

    [censored] I love this club.

    Oliver's hands to Hibberd in the build-up to the final goal though....

    We were under-manned and down and out but willed across the line. Unbelievable belief, guts and courage!  My red and blue heart is close to bursting outside my chest tonight!

    VERSE 2
    Come Eagles and umpires
    Please heed the call
    Don't give out free kicks and
    Don't dive on the ball
    For he that gets hurt
    Will be he who has stalled
    The Demon inside
    That's awaking.
    It'll shake up the Finals
    And make the Top Four
    For the times they are a-changin'.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
